How this compares
100 complaints is 2.3 times fewer than the median 2019 model on this site and 2.8 times fewer than the median 2019 SUV. Among the 1 Rogue Sport model years here it ranks 1st for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
Complaints filed by year
20 complaints came in 2025, 1.8 times the year before. Owners file in waves when a problem gets press or an investigation, so a spike measures attention as much as failures.
